Variant summary

Our verdict is Pathogenic. The variant received 20 ACMG points: 20P and 0B. PVS1PS3PP5_Very_Strong

The NM_018082.6(POLR3B):c.1648C>T(p.Arg550*) variant causes a stop gained change involving the alteration of a non-conserved nucleotide. The variant allele was found at a frequency of 0.0000136 in 1,613,128 control chromosomes in the GnomAD database, with no homozygous occurrence. In-silico tool predicts a pathogenic outcome for this variant. Variant has been reported in ClinVar as Pathogenic (★★). ClinVar reports functional evidence for this variant: "SCV003761426: "In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg550Ter variant may impact protein function." PMID:22036171" and additional evidence is available in ClinVar. Variant results in nonsense mediated mRNA decay.

Genes affected

POLR3B (HGNC:30348): (RNA polymerase III subunit B) This gene encodes the second largest subunit of RNA polymerase III, the polymerase responsible for synthesizing transfer and small ribosomal RNAs in eukaryotes. The largest subunit and the encoded protein form the catalytic center of RNA polymerase III. Mutations in this gene are a cause of hypomyelinating leukodystrophy. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]

ACMG classification

Classification was made for transcript

Our verdict: Pathogenic. The variant received 20 ACMG points.

PVS1

Loss of function variant, product undergoes nonsense mediated mRNA decay. LoF is a known mechanism of disease.

PS3

PS3 evidence extracted from ClinVar submissions: SCV003761426: "In vitro functional studies provide some evidence that the p.Arg550Ter variant may impact protein function." PMID:22036171; SCV002512891: Published functional studies demonstrate a damaging effect (cells expressing R550X failed to differentiate morphologically and phosphorylation/activation levels of molecules associated with mTOR signaling were decreased) (Sawaguchi et al., 2022);

PP5

Variant 12-106433739-C-T is Pathogenic according to our data. Variant chr12-106433739-C-T is described in ClinVar as Pathogenic. ClinVar VariationId is 31162.Status of the report is criteria_provided_multiple_submitters_no_conflicts, 2 stars.
